In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the body has a distribution network that creates a highway for three essential substances to flow throughout the body. This distribution network called the Meridian System looks like a giant web, linking different areas of our body together. Its pathways make up a comprehensive yet complex body map that supplies vital energy to every part of the body. Philosophically, the Meridian System explains how we live, and why we become sick.
Since all energy vibrates and oscillates at different rates, then, at least at the atomic level, the human body is really composed of different kinds of vibrating energy. The term, “vibrational medicine”, comes from this fact. By using a vibrational-medicine approach, it is possible to diagnose different types of illnesses based on knowledge of the different frequencies of energy that can be measured coming from the human body. For example, many doctors routinely order electrocardiagrams (EKG’s) on patients as part of their yearly exams. The electrical energy coming from the heart can give doctors information about whether the heart is functioning properly.”
So there was part of me that didn’t want to let go of 2012, I really enjoyed the unfolding of the year and so I delayed my first blog of the New Year to now. Last week after our son returned to Calgary for his next semester at University, I finally accepted that it was time to move forward into this new beginning. I spent some thoughtful time pondering what I wanted this New Year to bring forth because I know how powerful the focus of intention is. I would like to share with you briefly the energy I feel arising for me this year.
The other pattern for me in December is to give my home a thorough cleaning before I put up any Christmas decorations. The thought of adding beauty to clutter just feels like adding clutter to clutter.
I would like to think that for most of us, to live our lives with love, honesty, service, and determination is what makes our journey meaningful. It’s a reminder that life is a solo inner experience because we live it for our own happiness and fulfillment. Most of the time it includes others in our lives and the inter-relationships provide the richness of the experience but it’s really all about us! That’s why we would “Do it Anyway” when we are aware of all the possible outcomes that can be experienced from others.
She asked each of us to turn to the chorus members standing around us and tell them how Awesome they were. Well – that was effortless, it came with complete sincerity and lots of energy. Once we calmed down she said, ok, now turn to the chorus members around you and tell them how Awesome you are! Oh my goodness – that was a whole different ball game.
I was at my chiropractor’s office where I really enjoy reading a magazine they distribute called “Pathways to Family Wellness”, and this perfect article was in the current issue. So – I am going to interrupt the planned part 2 of my last blog and insert this timely article. Please watch for the part 2 to Heart Intelligence for next time. Here is the first section of the article followed by a link to read the full article if you are interested.
I am sure most of us are aware how much we reside in our heads as we embark on our day. The more I bring a conscious effort to bring my whole self into my awareness for more of my day, I realize how much I live in my head. I am getting good at bringing awareness to what I am feeling about what is happening and then I transfer it all back up to my head to try and figure out what to do with or about it! In the words of one of our Olympians it takes: “Practice, Practice, and more Practice!” After all – that’s how we got to where we are by practicing having our consciousness in our head. I may be making this all sound like effort which is the which is the last thing we need to add into our lives but really – my current experience is revealing that when I settle into my heart – my experience of life seems to be simplified, to become more clear and definitely become more peaceful.
Sometimes when we finally listen to our bodies cries for attention, we don’t know what to do next. That’s where I have been building my skill set. I added Biophoton light resonance therapy to my practice in March of this year after experiencing first hand the huge benefits of tuning into my body through the chiren instrument. By investigating the meridian points on your fingers and toes, imbalances are revealed where a disturbance or incoherent light occurs. The measurements are visible on the instrument and audible so it is a clear and precise way of locating disturbances. The interesting thing I have found while treating clients is that when we locate an imbalance and discuss the possible reasons for it – the answers become quite clear. It’s like putting together the pieces of a puzzle by going back to when symptoms started, what was going on at that time in the person’s life and the key part – how did the client feel at that time?
For me – the circle is magical. A circle is a sacred geometrical shape found in nature and used throughout our history as a symbol of oneness, of wholeness and of the connection of all things. So – when we gather in circle each month – we feel connected yet our individuality is honoured. We create a sacred space to allow for learning from our presenters and from each other. In our busy life style – circle provides an opportunity to take precious time out for ourselves, leaving behind our “to do” list for a few hours and just allowing space “to be”.
